There's such a crispness to winter air.
This cat thinks it's better to be inside on a comfy chair then trudging through the snow to take pictures.

Self portrait 3/365. I like the look of winter for the most part, but it's a giant challenge to photograph in the dark, cold, short days.

I gave blood today. To date I've given a gallon. And coincidentally this time they rewarded donors with a free lb of coffee. Both of those things make me happy.

Self Portrait 1/365, year 2. Call me crazy, but I'm starting again. Another year of a self portrait every day. I think I've learned a lot, pushed myself, and become a stronger photographer through this project, so there's no reason to not learn more, push harder, and become even stronger.

Self portrait 365/365. I did it! An entire year of self portraits. You can see the whole series here.

My sister and I have yet to perfect (or get anywhere close to perfect) the pizza dough shaping technique. Unintentionally, this one came out looking strangely like the United States.

It was a beautiful winter day. It wasn't even cold out! And for once, I had the whole day off to actually enjoy it.

I got to hang out with this cute guy during a weekly craft night. Unfortunately the craft itself is not quite finished so I don't have any pictures of it yet. I'm sure I'll post some soon.

Although it was warmer today then it has been, it wasn't warm enough to melt all the ice that covered every surfaces. I think it looks beautiful.

I'm getting much better at digital manipulation and editing. That's one big area this self portrait project has made me stronger in. Of course no matter what I'll always strive for more. Even so, I should be happy with what I've accomplished.

My plan is to stay inside and avoid that almost zero degree (Fahrenheit) temperature.

Those sea theme pin hole pictures I was working on are now hung up. It only took about 5 months to say I would get to and a couple hours to actually do.
An octopus, squid, and under water plants.

Outtake of self portrait 357/365. I'm so close to having taken a self portrait a day for a year already. That's hard to wrap my head around, it seems like I just started.

Hi kitty.
I finally got around to making some pin hole images to hang for myself. I'm planning an underwater sea theme for the bathroom, so I began with an octopus.

The icicles outside my window are almost as tall as I am.
I put the finishing touches on the felt coasters I was making for an apple themed dinner party tomorrow night. I'm quite happy with how they came out.

More snow! And lots of it! I love this weather. Night photography in the snow is fun, except the part when your fingers hurt from the cold.
January 11, 2011
I've been working hard on editing my work for my portfolio. It's a hard process, but it finally seems like I'm getting somewhere and that's a great feeling!
January 10, 2011
I picked up some supplies for a couple future craft projects, but the cat thought the paper some frames were wrapped in were for her. So in a way I picked up craft projects and cat toys in one go.

It was cold out today with giant gusts of wind that blew snow around, which the cat found very exciting.
I began work on another craft! It seems I need at least 2 going at a time or I feel unproductive. I'll post some finished pictures soon.

The silhouette of a cat looking out a window is one of the most simple, happy, calm images I can think of. I tried to get a better one of this guy, but if I got any closer he came towards me to be pet.
It's about time I started a new craft project. Here's an in progress look at an attempt to paper mache some apple shaped bowls for an apple theme dinner party next week.

Each morning I walk 7 flights of stairs a little too early in the morning. About the time I start getting tired I see this dropped napkin and smile because to me it looks like a rhinoceros (minus the horn). Hopefully you get a smile out of it too.

I tried to take a self portrait through the windshield as I was scrapping it off, but it didn't come out and surprise surprise I was running out of time and had to get to work! I'll have to try that idea another morning.

The light is gorgeous at 4 pm! Now if it would start setting much later in the evening I'd be even happier.

Self Portrait 345/365 Outtake. I can't believe it's almost been a year! It feels like I just started this project to take a self portrait a day for a year. It's taught me so much and challenged me to keep finding new ways to show some of the same places, especially now that I'm stuck indoors for winter.

This evening I made a "quick" birthday card for my sister. Lesson: sequences take a while to sew.
